CULTURE. Choose light soil and make small hills 3 feet apart, 

 having previously spaded deeply and fertilized. Plant long poles 

 2 feet deep in the center of the hills. Allow 6 beans to each hill, 

 covering them barely beneath the surface, their eyes down- 

 ward. Do not allow more than 3 to climb a pole, but remove 

 extra plants to hills where less than 3 have sprouted. The lima 

 bean is very delicate, and often from slight causes fails to sprout. 

 They should not be planted until the ground is warm.
